On Jan. 17, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will publish a revised edition of Form I-129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker, to align with the recent overhaul of the H-1B visa program. This edition of Form I-129 will replace the previous edition, which was updated on April 1, 2024. Effective Jan. 17, Form I-129 petitions received using the April 1, 2024, edition of the form will be rejected. There will be no grace period for the revised edition of Form I-129 because this revised edition is necessary for USCIS to apply the final rules. Read more on USCIS's website.
